6Press the NUMBER 1 button.

If the component you are trying to control turns on/ off, the set up for this component is complete, but components that don't have a standby mode can't respond in this way. To test if you've set it up properly work through step 8. Then try using selecting the function you just set up (for example a CD player) and using the controls on this remote control. If the component does not respond, try working through the procedure again and pressing number 2 instead this time. Continue this procedure until one of the com- mands works.

If none of the commands seem to work, try the learning mode to program the component into the remote control. This is explained on the following

7Press the SETUP OK button and the screen returns to SELECT FUNCTION so you can program another component into the remote

control.

Repeat the process for all of your components. You may find you have components which do not correspond to the name on any function button (for example a cable TV tuner) or you have two compo- nents where only one button is provided (MD/TAPE 1). In this case, use step 3 to assign any available function button to the component you want to remote control.

For example, you may have a cable TV tuner and one video deck in your system. It would make sense to assign the VCR 2 function button to your cable TV tuner in step 3. The rest of the procedure is the same as before. Choose CATV in step 4. The only practical difference in this method is that you have to remem- ber the VCR 2 function button is actually your cable TV tuner.

In this case, you would need to hook up your cable TV tuner to the input jacks marked VCR 2.

This method should help you customize the remote control for your system.
